Federal Bill Proposes Citizenship Proof Requirement for Voter Registration

The House of Representatives has passed the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act by a narrow 220-208 vote. The bill now heads to the Senate, where it will need 60 votes to move forward. If enacted, it would establish federal standards for verifying citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.

The SAVE Act would require all individuals to present in-person proof of citizenship to register. It would also mandate the removal of noncitizens from voter rolls and set nationwide verification standards, replacing the current patchwork of state-level rules. States that currently allow self-attestation for voter registration would be required to adopt stricter protocols.

Supporters argue that the bill is necessary to protect election integrity, ensuring that only U.S. citizens can vote in federal contests. They believe uniform standards will reduce the risk of voter fraud and increase public trust in the electoral system.

Critics, however, warn that the bill could lead to disenfranchisement, especially for low-income or rural voters who may lack easy access to required documents. As the debate shifts to the Senate, the future of the bill remains uncertain amid sharp partisan divides.
